    A train fits that statement too. So do planes. And boats.

    Trains run on tracks, and you can’t get hit by one unless you put yourself on those tracks.

    I’m not aware of pedestrians and cyclists getting hit by planes. I’d be interested to hear about this trend.

    Boats aren’t typically found on city streets, and pedestrian fatalities involving boats is how common?

    City and suburban streets should have fewer cars on it, not more. These are pedestrian areas, and perhaps we can learn a thing or two about how to actually prevent pedestrian fatalities by looking at European city planning and design.
